Many have lost a good portion of their retirement fund, some have lost their jobs, and others are feeling the pinch of rising health-care costs.

Reverse mortgages can provide seniors with some new financial options, but there are drawbacks. Learn what you should take into consideration before taking out a reverse mortgage.

Displaying accurate, reliable contact information is extremely valuable in conveying the leadership’s openness and responsiveness.
Locating contact information is often the primary reason a first time visitor is looking at the website.
Try these steps to guarantee your contact information is useful to your community:
- List all of your community leaders/volunteers, with their respective titles.
- List the responsibilities of each leader/volunteer.
- Provide as many different contact options, as possible (i.e. phone, address, email, etc)
- If you have organized committees, list committee assignments.
- Make it clear where, and to whom, a visitor/resident should direct their inquiries.
- Advertise the where/when of board meetings and committee meetings.
- Add photos – Especially good are photos of the leaders themselves.
- Update the contact information immediately when there is a change in leadership or responsibilities.
- Check all existing contact information twice a year for accuracy (some organizations make it a rule of thumb to check contact information for accuracy whenever daylight savings time changes).
